Abstract: Anew complex (1) was prepared by mixing pyridinium polystyrylsulfonate resin and aqueous fluoboric acid, followed by being dehydrated. 1 can be used as an acidic catalyst for the acetalization of benzaldehyde with n-butanol with a highly catalytic activity. The characterization and reusability of 1 are discussed.
